Penance is The Price
There was a boy so tall he towered above
I was his little leprechaun sprinkled in love
His green eyes blazed with a fierce passion
And I knew I was falling down his rabbit hole
What can a small town boy like me do when confronted with someone who was the world?
The sun shone through the clouds just to light Harry's face
His skin clear and dewy, kissed by the heavens
A smirk that could bring any guy down to his knees
This boy will ruin me
His confidence forced everyone to see him
But no one saw him through my eyes
I see a broken shell of a man
He knows his place on the tower of life isn't as high as it seems
He's not destined for greatness
He's just Harry
He sings and screams at night in his room
Standards so high he'll never be satisfied
Stuck in a life of disappointment he made for himself
Punishing others because of this fate
Harry, you did this to yourself
No one has asked you to pay this price
Why do you keep saving up service for the devil?
The sun would shine through the clouds just to light Harry's face
His skin clear and dewy, kissed by the heavens
A smirk that could bring any guy down to his knees
This boy is ruining me
A man with such weight on his shoulders has developed a hatred
He feels superior but is just a teenager
I've looked into his eyes and seen the lies
Maybe you shouldn't trust confidence if he is the epitome
One day he will fall and I will smile
Knowing karma is giving him everything worth wile
I hope his knees break when they fall to the floor
I hope he cries in mercy and begs forgiveness
Then I will look down upon him and put him in his place
He will know there is no other way
The sun used to shine through the clouds just to light Harry's face
His skin clear and dewy, kissed by the heavens
A smirk that could bring any guy down to his knees
This boy ruined me
But now I'm ruining him
